Based on my last session, I settled on two final loads and set out to test seating depths. I tried to follow some advice and removed my sling studs from the stock. The 107 smk has gotten real consistent. The 105 vld seems more picky, but shows some real promise.

Here is the first load...30g Re15 with 107 smk. I started with a .025 jump and worked up to a .015 jam in .005 increments. Looks like I will go with the .25 jump as this has been consistently good load the last two trips. I feel like I need to try a .030 jump, because I haven't tried it yet.

The next load... 29.7g Varget with 105 Berger VLD hunting bullet. This was not so good, but got real tight all of the sudden when jumped .011. Is this typical when the sweet spot is found? This load may warrant some more testing. I started out jamming at .005, .010 and .015, but these seemed to prefer the .011 jump.

I'm going to try the two best loads out at 3-400yds later this week.
